Rear Springs

 Above is the standard "kit" spring and wishbone suspension piece, Pretty good to start with, but I wanted to see if I could make it any more realistic looking by removing the moulded coilspring and replacing it with an actual spring.
  So I chopped the top coil seat off and filed off the remaining part so I was left with just the parts outside the coil seats.

Then I drilled a .5mm hole though the centre about 6 or 7mm into the core of the shock so I could slip a needle in as a guide for a 6mm long piece of x1.55mm aluminium tubing.
  Then I coiled a piece of while around a x2.5mm screw driver shaft to create a new spring. Once I slipped the tubing over the needle and the spring over the tubing, It was just a matter of popping the top coilseat back on top. Once I've painted all of it up I reckon it`ll look pretty good.
